The Property — Sirene Beach
Sirene Beach is a purpose-built 4-star resort sitting right on Faliraki’s main sandy stretch, with direct beach access and a big free-form pool. The lobby is open, airy and smells of salt and sunscreen — expect a busy check-in desk, families with armbands, and a buffet restaurant that churns out reliable Greek-Med fare. It suits couples and families who want a no-fuss beach holiday within walking distance of Faliraki’s tavernas and summer clubs.
Chronicles of Rodos
Rodos Town was founded in 408 BC by the Dorians and grew rich on maritime trade, building the Colossus — one of the Seven Wonders — in the 3rd century BC. Its medieval Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, was constructed by the Knights of St John between 1309 and 1522, mixing Gothic, Byzantine and Ottoman layers. After Italian rule in the early 20th century, the city modernised but kept its walled centre intact. Today it’s a summer hub where cruise crowds, history buffs and young night-trippers from Faliraki all converge.
Best Time to Visit
Full Rodos guide →Best months
June and September: consistently sunny, sea temperature comfortable for swimming, and visitor numbers haven’t peaked yet. May is also good for lower prices and quieter sites.
Peak / festival surge
July and August are peak season — school holidays plus the Rhodes Festival in late July draw huge crowds. Hotel prices at Sirene Beach roughly double from shoulder rates, and Faliraki’s beach fills by 10am. The Rhodes International Festival of Ancient Drama (July-August) is a cultural draw in the Old Town.
Budget shoulder season
Late May and early October offer the best discounts — around 40% less than peak — with mild 22-26°C days, far fewer tourists, and still-open tavernas.
Weather & packing
June afternoons can hit 32°C with gusty northerly meltemi winds, especially along the east coast. Pack a light windbreaker for beach evenings and a sun hat that won’t blow off.
Live City Briefing — Rodos
- Faliraki’s main beach road is undergoing resurfacing through summer 2026 — expect detours and some daytime noise near the Sirene Beach entrance.
- A new direct ferry link from Rhodes Town to Faliraki started in May 2026, cutting taxi costs for beach visitors.
- The medieval Old Town is limiting cruise-ship groups to 8,000 per day from June 2026 under a new sustainability plan — book early for guided tours.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Sirene Beach, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a bungalow — these are detached and quieter than the main building. Within the main block, ask for floors 2 or 3 (mid-level, away from ground-floor footfall and roof-level machinery; upper floors are served by the single lift which can be slow in peak hours).
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on floor 1 of the main building — near the lobby, bar and restaurant, so subject to evening noise and early-morning bustle. Also avoid rooms directly above or next to the lift shaft (most floors have a cluster around the lift core).
Best views
Main building rooms facing the pool and sea have partial sea views (Faliraki coast is flat, so views are over rooftops and a strip of green). Bungalows in the front rows offer direct garden or pool views; those at the back face other bungalows or parking. No room has unobstructed sea views from all angles.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3 of the main building are the quietest — sufficiently elevated to reduce street and ground-level noise, and not top-floor (no overhead footsteps). Bungalow blocks are inherently quieter due to detachment.
🔊 Noise notes
Faliraki is a busy resort strip — the hotel sits on the main road (Leoforos Kallitheas), so rooms facing the street hear traffic from early morning until late evening. The single lift can create intermittent mechanical hum and waiting chatter on all floors. The pool bar has amplified music some afternoons and evenings.
Insider tips
Park early (before 11am) to secure a spot; overflow is a 15-minute walk to the public car park. Request a bungalow at booking time — they are limited and often released to returning guests. If you need step-free access, choose the main building (ground floor via ramp) and specify a walk-in shower room at least 48 hours before arrival.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATMs in Rodos town centre for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at the airport and tourist spots as they charge high fees and poor rates.
Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in most shops and restaurants; contactless works fine but carry some cash for small markets and local taxis.
Not expected, but rounding up the bill or leaving 5-10% for good service in restaurants is appreciated; taxis and hotel staff don't expect tips, though a small amount for porters is fine.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →A traditional Greek coffee or freddo cappuccino at a local kafeneio costs around €2-€3.
A gyros pita from a street stand or small shop costs about €3-€4 and is filling.
A main course like moussaka or grilled fish at a modest taverna runs €8-€12.
Look for souvlaki and gyros stands in Old Town's narrow alleys or along Mandraki harbour for quick, cheap eats.
Supermarket chains like Galaxias and Sklavenitis are common and reasonably priced.
For affordable basics, head to the main shopping street, Orfanidou, or the market area near St. Francis Church for local brands and sales.
City buses cost €1.20 for a single ride within town; from the airport, take the public bus (line 01 or 02, about €2.50) instead of a taxi.
Eat away from tourist-heavy Old Town streets to save €2-3 per meal; buy wine directly from local tavernas at half the bar price; fill a reusable water bottle at public fountains (tap water is safe).
